Yes. No. The COFF stuff has a whole library devoted to it under A/UX. So it's
easy to get out what you want from a COFF file. Then just translate it to a
CODE resource. I've never tried CODE resources but I wrote a simple program
to turn a COFF file into a DRVR resource. I don't know what the format of a
CODE resource is but it should be easy once you know.
